Barnet's impressive unbeaten streak in League Two faces a significant test away to Chesterfield this Saturday. The Bees are second in the table and have not lost in 13 league matches, a club record in the Football League's pre-match statistics.
This weekend's fixture at the Technique Stadium pits a high-flying Barnet side against a Chesterfield team sitting 16th. The hosts have taken just four points from their opening games and could fail to win any of their first three home matches of a Football League season for the first time since 1994-95. Barnet, meanwhile, have eight points and have scored nine goals already.
Historical data suggests this will be a tough assignment for Barnet. They have lost four of their last five away Football League games against Chesterfield, winning just once. Across those five matches, they have never scored more than a single goal. The last time Chesterfield lost back-to-back league meetings with Barnet was in October 1994. The most recent encounter saw Barnet win 1-0 at home last February, a result they will aim to replicate on the road. You can review the full head-to-head history and more on our stats page.
Barnet's form has been strong across all competitions. Their last five outings include a 5-1 EFL Trophy win over Arsenal's U21 side and League Two victories against Shrewsbury Town and Salford City. They have drawn their last two league games, however, 1-1 with Exeter City and 2-2 with Cheltenham Town. Chesterfield's form is more mixed, with a win over Salford City but losses to Rotherham United and Fleetwood Town in the league, plus a League Cup defeat to the same opponent.
The early-season table shows a clear gap. Barnet are firmly in the automatic promotion places, while Chesterfield are in the bottom half. This match offers Barnet a chance to consolidate their position and for Chesterfield to kickstart their campaign. The full standings are updated live.
